just when i was going to bed!
Is that all you have for doto?
shit well I guess it's hard to criticize the better game
it's called friendly banter, sadly you seem to have sunk too deep in the fanboy pit to be able to have friendly banter
yeah of course you say "prize pools don't matter" since Dota is destroying League lol
FGC, Call of Duty, Hearthstone, Pokémon, World of Tanks prize pools aren't worth discussing
most played game in the world that's been out for 7 years and it's just overtaking Starcraft 2, sad
since you don't seem to be able to muster a reason why prize pool matters, i'll tell you all there is to say about prize pools
it's a penis thing
you can measure dota's penis with this prize pool thing and it's convenient for you because unlike other metrics it's bigger than league's penis. now we're all very proud of your big 20 million penis, that's great, i'm happy for you, but that's all it is, and personally i'm not that into penis comparing contests
if you can find a reason that's not penis related i'm all ears
edit: btw that picture only tracks prize money, which is a really biased statistic to use to measure the success of an esport. sadly it's very hard to track things like sponsorships, salaries players get from their teams, transfer fees, etc. and it's pretty late for me to look for data on this but i think what you're showing is very misleading if it's meant to say league players are underpaid
and riot 'salaries' not being disclosed means there's obviously money that isn't going to the right people
?
ctrl+f compensation. $12.500 per player and coach over a split. hardly undisclosed. not sure what $12.500 gets you in america but if that were my salary for 6 months (on top of team salary, twitch stream money and sponsors) i'd be pretty pleased
The designs look like generic Korean MMO characters. The women are rail thin with revealing outfits and suffer from same face lol, it's always awkwardly sexualized poses with them. The men look like the same Blade and Soul template but they're given gigantic shoulder pads, overstylized armor plates, robes everywhere. Riot just took Dota's designs and made them too anime.
they've been trying to move away from those stereotypes but sure, it's something that's plagued the character design in the past. look at the latest released female champions like illaoi and taliyah, they're a lot better than some of the blade and soul template stuff from the zeronis days
And those in-game models? Jesus christ, everyone looks and animates like Warcraft 3 characters. Can they at least sharpen the resolution of the models or something so they don't look like a blurry mess.
i would love higher res models too but what can you do. hardly a cardinal sin. about the animation part, i'll direct you to this
dev blog where they show how they do awesome stuff with smear frames and shit on the poppy rework. you probably are mistaking current riot animation with 2009 riot animation. things have change a lot since then
League received several graphical overhauls over the years and it still looks like that? And good god all the information everywhere, Dota is a more complicated game but even that has an easy to follow HUD and alerts. This is just an ugly game
i find the hud really easy to follow, important stuff on the center, the periphery stuff is all non essential. i think it looks very pretty, specially in motion, very vibrant and colorful
Valve adds in new shit all the time, and it doesn't even slow the game down. League always takes forever to load the map, and it's so needy that it freezes my pc lol. What a joke.
loading times are long, but so are stalker and half life's and those games are pretty good
also maybe u should check your pc, freezes aren't normal in league
Those other maps don't get as much rotation as HOTS does
true, was just clarifying your wrong statement of "league only has one map". that's a lie, it has a few maps
You better leave my GotG alone, Rocket will blow anyone in League to smithereens.
i really don't care about that movie enough to talk about it
If you can say League is the best game then I can say it's garbo, which it is.
i didn't say it's the best game, but i think it's pretty good
you're entitled to your opinion. there are tons of reasons not to like league, and they're all valid, you don't need to resort to lies and misinformation
And Riot programmers are terrible; the client won't let me change the settings for when I'm actually in the fucking game, the map takes ten years to load and G-Sync doesn't even work right lol. What a shame.
the client stuff is coming soon, not sure what to tell you about g-sync, i don't know what that is.
LoL is a terrible game. I loved it during beta, the dev team used to interact with us freely - we had ideas for maps/modes etc that didn't clash with dota 1, most were actively discussed with dev participation on the forums.
Then shit the fan. Riot is now one of the worst dev teams around, they don't give 2 shits about customer satisfaction, the game is pretty much a money-making business with customer focus now not being prioritised.
On top of that, they actively started trying to go against dota, started banning people for complaining about LoL etc etc etc. I could write for pages if I actually bothered, but it's easier to just /r LoL or Riot and see the shit they've done.
I will say this, I played the game a lot during beta, much more than dota 2 beta - but once it became clear Riot was filled with idiots, most of us lost interest and went back to dota.
things rito does to interact with their community:
- post on reddit, twitter and their forums (i've gotten personal replies from rioters on all three)
- weekly blog replying to community questions
- podcasts every patch
- various state of the game type blog posts discussing different issues with the game from missing features, to the meta, to competitive
also i invite you to bother to post any sort of evidence for the things you're saying cos sounds to me like you're just making shit up/blowing things out of proportion. i always appreciate factual evidence with links and pictures and all that fun stuff
i've got answers prepared for every thing you're gonna say next cos i've heard it all before and it's always been a load of crap so it might save us both some time if you would just accept that you're talking about a game you haven't played in 7 years that you're out of touch with
But I do want to continue playing it. There are good ideas and great potential; a deeper State of Decay is what's nearly on offer, and that's super enticing. So I shall persevere.
dead state is really a very broken game. i like it a lot enough to play it for like 100 hours because it's basically fallout but yeah, in a better world it would've gotten a lot more money on kickstarter and been 10x more polished
i'm still glad they didn't scale back their ambitions and gave it an honest shot
i'm a big fan of overambitious games, i find it i can't help but root for them
...And anyways, how are y'all d--
[MOBAwars]
Oh.
it's less of a war and more of a very salty person lying for unclear reasons? something about me not liking guardians of the galaxy? fanboy agendas? idk...
i think i never said a bad thing about hots or doto, at least about their gameplay, so i'm not sure what's this craziness all of the sudden lol
only thing i mind about doto is the loot box stuff because i find gambling in games bad and i've criticized riot a lot for adding loot boxes to league as well. i don't find doto very fun to play but that's no fault of the game, i'm just used to league
